Penny & Tony are indeed exceptional hosts. The rooms are spotlessly clean and well presented with lovely pieces of Portuguese furniture - including a spectacularly carved bedhead in the room we occupied. The Manor house has been lovingly restored to include many home comforts and quirky adaptations such as the original wine press being converted into a very large bath... More

We stayed at Quinta do Scoto for the last 3 days of our 12 day visit to Portugal. We were four couples visiting Portugal from Canada. The accommodations were outstanding. Tony and Penny have done a great job restoring the manor house, but more importantly, they go out of their way to make you feel at home. Starting from the... More

We can only support all the other favourable comments entered by guests of Quinta do Scoto. We would add that our week's holiday was without a car but with the local station being within easy walking distance from the Quinta we were able to take advantage of the frequent, reliable trains to reach all parts of Lisbon to the east...

The Quinta Do Scoto is so much more than a bed and breakfast establishment. Tony and Penny are marvellous hosts,quietly going about the business of making ones stay perfect and memorable. They could do nothing about the very unexpected freezing north wind that blew during our stay but put on the very efficient heating! Our huge Marquis de Pombal suite... More

Quinta do Scoto is the perfect retreat to relax, re-energize, and mull over your day's worth of learnings and experiences. The lodging is extra comfortable, unusually spacious, and thoughtfully supplied with most anything you might need or have readily available in our own home. And Tony and Penny provide the ultimate warm welcome, complete with coaching and encouragement to face... More

If you are looking for a sterile, box type hotel chain, go look somewhere else! My wife and I would consider Quinta Do Scoto as a boutique hotel with the only thing missing would be a doorman in a penguin suit with brass buttons! This would be more than made up for by Penny, Tony, daughter Charlotte and the small... More

I recently stayed at Quinta do Scoto with 4 of my friends on our annual girls trip. The two night stay was the kick off of our vacation to Portugal and what a great way to start. Tony and Penny welcomed us with open arms and a glass of wine. The two room suite was roomy enough for the 5... More

We have just returned from a 6 week stay in Portugal. In the third week we stayed at Quinta do Scoto for several nights for the first time. We were so impressed that we cancelled a booking at another hotel in the area to stay a second time when we were back in the area. The reviews I have read... More
